Good hunting!

In just a couple of days the Warden will unlock a new alternative Rundown and although experienced prisoners will know what awaits them on the deeper expeditions, everything isn’t as you remember. Clear all of your weekend plans - ALT://Rundown 3.0 The Vessel releases on Thursday the 2nd of March, 12:00 UTC.



In this Rundown, you must deliver the neonate acquired in Rundown 2.0 for the final steps in a mystifying process to create whatever is inside that HSU. You will also discover messages and logs from another prisoner called John Schaeffer, who appears to have broken his programming and is determined to discover why he’s in Garganta, and answer the question:

Who is the Warden?

Tune up those rally cars and get those off-road tires fitted. The Horizon Wilds Takeover celebrates the upcoming Forza Horizon 5 Rally Adventure expansion coming March 29 and pays homage to a legend of motorsport.


The next Forza Horizon 5 update will be available to download on Xbox consoles and Windows PCs though the Microsoft Store and Steam from Tuesday, February 28, which is two days before the Horizon Wilds Takeover series begins in-game on Thursday, March 2.



We’re closely monitoring your Forza Horizon 5 feedback as new fixes are developed and introduced in each series update. Here’s a look at some of the new improvements in this update:

• An issue that caused PR Stunts to reset to one star despite the Personal Best score displaying a higher amount has been fixed.
  
• We’ve fixed an issue that unintendedly reset Car Masteries for a vehicle if listed on the Auction House.
  
• To alleviate some regional ISP issues, particularly in Argentina, we’ve made improvements to online player connectivity.
  
• For some players, an issue with the Treasure Chest not spawning in the game upon solving the riddle persisted. We’ve made further improvements to fix this for all players.
  
• We’ve fixed the miscalculation on the EventLab Props Budget UI when an object is removed.
  
• Some players couldn’t unlock the “Mission Complete” Accolade despite fulfilling the required objective. This has been fixed.
  
• We've fixed an issue which allowed players to unintentionally drive out of the environment while customizing a car.
  
• Unintended shadows would appear near the rear wheels of the 1995 Toyota MR2 GT when using BOMEX side skirts. This has been fixed.
  
• An issue which prevented players from setting the Horizon Festival Outpost as their Player House while the Hot Wheels Festival Outpost is set as the Player House has been fixed.

You can find the full list of fixes in our release notes, which will be published once the update has been released. We’ve also recently launched a new Troubleshooting Hub over on the Forza Forums to closely track the issues you’ve been reporting and understand how widespread they are to make informed decisions on where to prioritize our development efforts. This is an extension of our Known Issues list, which gathers all the items we’re currently investigating in one place.


Over the next four weeks, look out for new decorations around the Horizon Wilds Festival Outpost. If you’re a fan of our murals, they’ll also be decorated throughout the series with Photo Challenges encouraging you to capture your best image of each in the Autumn, Winter and Spring seasons.



The fan-favorite Stunt Park is returning with refreshed colors to celebrate the Horizon Wilds Takeover. Meanwhile, in the Autumn season, look for the Collectible Pinata Dinosaur, which can be found by the Horizon Stadium. Complete the Pinatasaurus challenge to receive the biggest fashion item of the year, the Dinosaur Outfit, and you’ll always stand out from the festival crowd.

For EventLab creators, we’ve added the “Lucky Cat” and “Red Dinosaur Piñata” props to the Blueprint Builder.


To honor the life of Ken Block, we recently sent all players 1965 Ford ‘Hoonicorn’ Mustang and the Ken Block race suit and helmet. These items can be redeemed from the “Gifts” tab of the Message Center.



In addition, we’ve put together some special content for the Horizon Wilds Takeover inspired by his motto: “GO FAST RISK EVERY THANG,” which can be unlocked as a chat phrase for Forza LINK.

As featured in GYMKHANA NINE, the 2016 Hoonigan Ford Focus RS RX is available to add to your garage this series, and if you drive it or any other Hoonigan vehicle in Forza Horizon 5 for 4.3 miles (7km), you will unlock his #43 helmet as a Player Badge.



We’ve also created several Accolades with Ken Block inspired objectives:




Forza Horizon 5 Rally Adventure will be available to download from March 29! Check out our dedicated blog for all the details on the extreme off-road driving thrills that await in this incredible new expansion. As for our next series, we’ll be turning down the lights for Midnights at Horizon. Stay tuned for more details later in March!

Greetings, mercenaries!

This is Dude, Community person from Bonus Stage Publishing, and I have some news for you.

We start closed playtest on 6th of the March 2023. It's like already next Monday.

Join here, and we send you a Steam key: https://forms.gle/Yhi2sWoQTjY9WH2HA

We have done lot's of improvements since last version. This new version brings number of enemies in the enemy pool to 15 – 5 Merc Killers, and 10 standard enemies.

Latest version also introduces a number of fixes to how runs are saved/loaded. It won't be perfect yet, but should be better than ever before.

WARNING: in general this release will be somewhat buggy/unbalanced, so only play if you're willing to deal with that. We did some playtesting ourselves and fixed a few game-breaking bugs, but there might be more. And that's why we need more people to give this game a shot.

The good news is that this is the last large release before v1.0.0 (public release). Now, the only updates we'll be pushing are bug fixes, balance fixes, and adding in missing art assets. So instead of introducing more new stuff, it'll all be about polishing and fixing what already exists.

"If you try out this release, thank you in advance! It means a lot to me."
-Tim the Developer


Any feedback would be much appreciated!
